Mail issues with url tag

emiliolcc · 2012-10-24 03:47:43

Hi everyone!! I'm using and loving CB11! There is one thing that is kind of bugging me but it is not related to the OS. I've set up my account to get replies from posts in the forum straight to my mail and I've notice that when someone includes a url tag the link excludes the first [ url ] tag as it should but not the second one. So if I try to make a link to lets say www.example.com and put it between url tags the link will actually point to www.example.com[ / url] which is clearly not what we would want.

I know it's silly but hey!!! smile

Thank you!

I receive 30-40 emails a day from the forums here and have never seen what you are describing.

When you respond to this, please put a link in the reply so when I get I may get a better idea of what you are seeing.

I am curious as to how you have yours setup to receive anything from within the message. From what I understand, these forums only have the ability to notify about a new message you are subscribed to but not the ability to send the content of any messages.

You cannot see my issue with the 'url' tag there as it's working as a tag properly when I post it tongue

Interesting... That looks like gmail which is what I use too, it must be a setting within gmail that I have different. I will try to see what that difference is.

emiliolcc · 2012-10-24 05:15:43

I doubt it's related to Gmail as it looks like a source formatted message. I'd say we have a different configuration of the #! forum account!

VastOne · 2012-10-24 05:17:18

^ That is the point I was making earlier, there is no differences because there are no options... smile It is either Subscribed or Not Subscribed.

emiliolcc · 2012-10-24 05:19:25

If you go to Profile -> Settings there is an option for "Include a plain text copy of posts in subscription e-mails." I have it ticked and I think that might be the one making the difference!

Though I don't know why I have it ticked, I always go to the post as soon as I get anything anyways xD

VastOne · 2012-10-24 05:21:35

^ I do not have that ticked... interesting. On the next reply, I will confirm it, I have ticked it now

^ Nope, it made no difference... Sorry. I still do not see it smile
